Mini Closet Makeover

Our apartment is not so big and therefore we utilize all the space aka. pack it in :). Our closet is actually a pretty decent size but we have a lot of stuff jammed in it and there just happens to be no door. I really don't mind the no door thing but it created a bit of a problem because even though its organized it is still a visual overload, something I don't really get along with. So I decided to give my closet a little bit of an uplift.

This is what our closet looked like before. Packed much?

The whole project only cost me under $15 (woop woop!) and was overall really easy. All the supplies I needed are picture below plus your choice of curtains.

I started by refinishing the bare wood closet pole and making it a pretty, basic white. Then I measured and drilled and attached my closet pole sockets. Next, I put my new curtains onto my nifty new closet pole and put it into place and voila!! There you have it.

I love how it turned out and it totally transformed the overall feeling in the room. It feels so much more relaxing now which I think is the best! The curtains I got are from Ikea for $2 for a pack of two. Now I call that a deal!! They come in an extra long length so you can just trim them to your desired length once you put them into place.

On another note, its Friday!! I hope you all have a great day and enjoy your weekend. This weekend we are celebrating the Hubs' birthday because he will be back in the Bahamas on his special day. I am excited to celebrate him and make him feel as special as he is to me :)

I am a new-ish wife that has a great love for My Savior and for my Hubby. My husband and I made the trek from one side of the country (Minneapolis, Minnesota) to the other (Mobile, Alabama) shortly after our June wedding of 2010. It has a big change for us but God has been right by our side through it all and it has been a unique adventure that is still continuing! I invite you to follow along as I write about all things that are my life. :)

Romans 11:36 - For from him and through him and to him are all things. To him be the glory forever.

This is my AMAZING husband. He. has. my. heart. I fall more in love with him every morning I wake up by his side. He is my best friend and my supporter and I couldnt be more thankful for him!! He is my God sent.
